| Résumé : |
In 1958, James G. March and Herbert A. Simon noted that there is no limit to the amount of inactivity that can be absorbed by organizations. In 1995, Jeremy Rifkin predicted The End of Work. In 2007, Philippe Rothlin and Peter R. Werder conceptualized the Boreout Syndrome. In 2008, STEPSTONE carried out a European survey of 11,238 employees from seven European countries. The verdict is unequivocal: 32% of European employees occupy a job in which they have nothing to do. Our academic researches show that there is no state of the art on the subject. Our preliminary discussions with the test group determined that data can be collected from Internet Relay Chats concerning boredom at work. We proceeded with several successive interrogations, incrementing search engines by family of keywords. We then processed the corpus using Alceste 4.9 software. The result is acceptable, since the axes explain 73% of the corpus information in total. Analysis of the verbatims sorted by the software gave us information on two aspects of Boreout syndrome. Its structure and its emergence: the signals given out by people who are bored at work. |
